El Salvador - Miramar

El Salvador Miramar Espresso | Strawberry & Chocolate 

A modern espresso revolution. High-altitude Pacas varietal undergoes intense Anaerobic Natural processing to deliver a creamy shot exploding with strawberry jam, cherry, and chocolate notes.

The Origin Story

From the high-altitude, volcanic soils of El Salvador, the Miramar farm presents a truly modern espresso experience. This coffee undergoes the intense Anaerobic Natural process, where cherries are fermented in sealed, oxygen-deprived tanks. This method amplifies the sweetness and complexity, creating concentrated Red fruits and Stone fruit notes that are rare in espresso. This innovative process is why this Premium Espresso delivers a complex, fruit-forward shot.

Bean Identity

Roast Philosophy

Roasted to a vibrant Medium Roast profile suitable for espresso. Our approach is to balance the intense fruit acids from the Anaerobic Natural process with development necessary for espresso extraction. This allows the clarity of the Cherry & Strawberry notes to shine through while retaining enough body to produce a creamy, high-quality shot.

Sensory Profile Deep Dive

This is an espresso profile for those who seek brightness and clarity, moving beyond the traditional dark roast.

• Aroma: A powerful, sweet aroma of ripe Strawberry and deep Maraschino Cherry upon grinding.
• Body: A medium-heavy, smooth body. It is a Juicy coffee with a coating, satisfying mouthfeel that supports the sweetness.
• Acidity: Bright, balanced, and clean Fruity Acidity, resembling concentrated Red fruits jam.
• Notes: Vivid notes of ripe Strawberry, sweet Cherry, underlying Cocoa, and a gentle complexity of Stone fruit.
• Finish: A long, clean, and sweet finish that evolves into a pleasant chocolate-covered fruit note.

Degassing Advice (Expert Tip)

To properly stabilize the intense fermentation notes from the Anaerobic Natural process, we recommend a slight rest. Allow these Espresso Coffee Beans to rest for 7 to 10 days post-roast date for optimal extraction and clarity in the cup.
